Is Voldemort shooting flak at all the messenger owls or something? I go 20 years without seeing a story about an owl in the city and this is the third or fourth one in just a few weeks - and at least two of the little hooters were injured.

Have Harry Potter and his friends invaded America for real and not just on the silver screen? Or are those kids on the Common playing Quiddich keeping owls. Hey you kids - get a permit for that!
